Do you love free pizza — and supporting your community? The second annual Snowflake Festival is coming up on February 1, 2014 at Grace Point Church, and volunteers are needed to ensure the event runs smoothly. Some of the things you could do are:

The movies for Ellerslie Community League’s monthly Family-Fun Movie Night have been selected! All movies are shown at Grace Point Church and start at 6:30 p.m. Bring your community league membership for FREE drinks and popcorn!

It’s official!! After a couple years of hard work we have raised enough money to build the park next year! A huge thank you to Amarjeet Sohi for speaking to the developers of our neighbourhood on our behalf. When he told them we only had $37,500 left to raise, Cameron Developments donated an additional $7,500 (from their previous $10,000 donation) and MLC donated $30,000!!!

Please watch your mailboxes for our pamphlet that will give you an opportunity to donate to the park project. We are hoping to raise additional funds so we can install poured-in-place rubber in the park instead of the engineered wood fibre we are currently budgeted for. We appreciate your continued support and look forward too seeing you at the park! Remember, even if you donated last year you can donate again this year and get a new tax receipt for the next tax season. We will also total all of your donations so that your name can be displayed on the next level on the rock plaque.

I would like to take the time to recognize some of the businesses that have donated to our project:
